The photocatalytic mechanism reported in a recent Communication to produce the radical anion of pyrenes postulates a highly endergonic electron transfer process. An analysis of the thermodynamics is reported together with the proposal of an alternative thermodynamically feasible mechanism.

Abstract
The photocatalytic mechanism reported in a recent Communication to produce the radical anion of pyrenes postulates a highly endergonic electron transfer process. An analysis of the thermodynamics is reported together with the proposal of an alternative thermodynamically feasible mechanism.File in questo prodotto:
